Covid payments make lazy people

Why work when they can stay home and get paid to sit. People are going to be addicted to government cheques in the mail....lots already are. I hired one guy to drive truck from the fields to the yard...$25/hr, paid for his hotel, dinner provided...quit after the first day. Others insisting on cash under the table because they're getting government money...when I said no can do, they walked away. Now with this election (Canada) coming up and all these politicians promising free shit....it's gonna get worse

Personally this is working out rather well, while all the lazy people decide to just chill at home, rare job opportunities are opening up for peeps that have decided to keep working.

@plungesponge I rely on foreign university students and family to get the crops off....in the process now of sponsoring a family from South Africa...nobody here is willing to work

@plungesponge here in Canada, we have a federal election coming up....you should here the promises for free this and subsidized that....and their plan to pay for it is to "tax the wealthy more" and to bring in stuff like an "inheritance tax"....it's unreal

@Mongoheadmonster Socialists only spend until they run out of other people's money. Yeah. Unreal.
